You didn't ask for this but you'll probably need it. You'll need to find a scan that's in a higher resolution, otherwise only a place holder could be made. Sometime back, I came across a site that had tons of SMS cover scans but I didn't bother to bookmark it. Stupid me.

Thanks segamer! 

The Cart looks really nasty condition. Think I may swap the Casing for one in better condition.

I'm afraid I can't finish beyond this point without the rest of the text typed out for me. I don't have an image that is clear enough to read nor can I speak any of those European languages.

Off to a good start but the grid background looks kinda big. Would look funny sitting next to other european covers.

The grid on the template is the standard size used by most Master System and Genesis games. It was very obvious that the grid was smaller on the retail Space Gun when I was building it. I know a lesser percentage of games use the smaller grid. I've made a lot of templates that I currently use for many of my covers. I've also fixed many templates on this site for myself. However, I have no intention of spending the time to perfect this cover or to rebuild the template for this game. Space Gun is obscure. I actually had no intention of building it this much. I posted the Art Work for it yesterday and there were no bites in terms of someone picking up the project. I've build it this far, I figured from this point, it's easy for someone that cares to add the text. It's also easy to remove the artwork for anyone that wants to spend the time making a perfect a retail cover.  

I only posted this for someone to pick up the ball or use as a place holder.

Here's the Art. noclass_nick, you seem to care, less talk, more action. Get too work!!! :)

I've already built the small grid into my template - I'll gladly pick this up tomorrow.  Master system is my favourite to make covers for.

Awesome, I used the Grumbleduke template. If I'd known, I'd of used your template. :)

Mine is just a modified grumbleduke one.  Added in the small grid and perhaps a few,other bits.  Can't  remember - but it was a great template to start with.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone. I dont know anywhere else on the net with people so keen to assist others.

I can type the foreign languages and paste here. Will make time for this at the weekend. Or perhaps If someone could paste the english text here and I could use babel fish or something to translate the text for me with ease. May not be 100% exact but would save a couple of hours maybe?

space gun can (as usual) be found in my box.net



i can usually find at least 5 of the language texts on line, but in this case only 3 - i was feeling generous, so i typed all the others.  I hate Swedish! lol

Thank you sheep. Must have taken you a good while.

Looks great. Really getting into collecting for the SMS at the moment. Wondering what the rarest titles are for this system?

I have seen Power strike 2 sell for £70+
